Antivirus for Mac

Overview

As Apple products grow in popularity, they have become attractive targets for cybercriminals. Yes, Macs can be infected by a growing number of viruses and other malware. Our free Antivirus for Mac keeps you safe from all the latest Mac threats detected by SophosLabs.

Features

Full Mac protection from viruses, Trojans and worms
Stops all threats, even those designed for Windows. Not only is your computer safe—the people running PCs you send files to are safe from threats too.

Secure web browsing
Be safer online. Sophos Antivirus scans websites for malicious codes. It also blocks web-based malware before it can infect your Mac, protecting you from Internet threats.

Stops all threats, familiar and unfamiliar
Our antivirus technology stops all threats, even if it's something new. Thanks to Live Antivirus, you have a direct line to SophosLabs for the latest threat intelligence.

Quarantines and removes the threats it finds
You might not want to immediately delete bad files our scans find. No problem. You can quarantine questionable files and check them again later, or you can have them immediately removed from your computer. The choice is yours.

"Sophos scans all files on access, eliminating any malicious files before they can launch. At any time you can scan the entire Mac or just specific folders. Sophos can immediately delete found threats or put them into quarantine; you choose. New in the current edition, you can set up a schedule of regular scans."
